Deploying SVMs with the File Anti-Virus and Network Threat Detection components

SVMs with Kaspersky Security components are deployed on VMware ESXi hypervisors when Kaspersky Security services are deployed on VMware clusters. Deployment of services is performed in the VMware vSphere Web Client console.

To deploy SVMs with Kaspersky Security components:

1. In the VMware vSphere Web Client console, start the Deployment Wizard for network services and protection services for virtual machines (the Networking & Security / Installation and Upgrade section on the Service Deployments tab).
2. If you want to deploy an SVM with the File Anti-Virus component, use the Wizard to specify the following settings:
   1. Select the Kaspersky File Antimalware Protection service in the table.
   2. Select one or several VMware clusters on which you want to deploy SVMs with the File Anti-Virus component.
   3. If required, change the default settings for all SVMs with the File Anti-Virus component that will be deployed on hypervisors within the selected VMware cluster:
      • Network that will be used by SVMs with the File Anti-Virus component.
      • Storage for SVM deployment.
      • Method of assigning IP addresses. By default, SVMs receive network settings via the DHCP protocol. You can configure a static pool of IP addresses that will be used for assigning IP addresses to the SVMs.
3. Finish the Wizard and wait for deployment of the Kaspersky File Antimalware Protection service to complete.

   An SVM with the File Anti-Virus component will be deployed on each hypervisor within the VMware cluster that you selected.

   For more details about the procedure for deploying SVMs with the File Anti-Virus component, please refer to the Knowledge Base.

4. If you want to deploy an SVM with the Network Threat Detection component, use the Wizard to specify the following settings:
   1. Select the Kaspersky Network Protection service in the table.
   2. Select one or several VMware clusters on which you want to deploy SVMs with the Network Threat Detection component.
   3. If required, change the default settings for all SVMs with the Network Threat Detection component that will be deployed on hypervisors within the selected VMware cluster:
      • Network that will be used by SVMs with the Network Threat Detection component.
      • Storage for SVM deployment.
      • Method of assigning IP addresses. By default, SVMs receive network settings via the DHCP protocol. You can configure a static pool of IP addresses that will be used for assigning IP addresses to the SVMs.
5. Finish the Wizard and wait for deployment of the Kaspersky Network Protection service to complete.

   An SVM with the Network Threat Detection component will be deployed on each hypervisor within the VMware cluster that you selected.

   For more details about the procedure for deploying SVMs with the Network Threat Detection component, please refer to the Knowledge Base.
